My Computer Is Future Shockin' | Sacred Symbols, Episode 400

compelling rumors indicate Sony might opt to go in the other direction. This is particularly surprising considering their pursuit of success on PC, openness in publishing on Nintendo Switch, and the shocking move to bring Helldivers II to Xbox. Then again, the numbers speak for themselves. It appears PlayStation has grossed somewhere between one and two billion dollars in total from their PC releases dating back to 2020, a comically small sum compared to their greater gross over that time, and an amount of money that may simply not justify further jeopardizing their closed ecosystem. Are we about to snap back to the old way of doing things? Many PlayStation fans will be pleased, if so. Plus: Wolverine gets a September release date on PS5, Horizon: Hunters Gathering and Marathon revel in concurrent playtests, Death Stranding 2 is coming to PC very soon, French publisher Nacon declares its insolvency, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Can Sony's first party teams truly be blamed for pitching games-as-a-service when it was clear that's what leadership wanted? Could it be possible that the secret Santa Monica Studio, Cory Barlog-directed game is Uncharted? Is Resident Evil 9's 10-12 hour runtime a selling point or a detriment? Will Sacred Symbols go another 400 episodes, or perhaps even 4,000? A new episode of Sacred Symbols: A PlayStation Podcast launches each Friday morning.

400! Congrats you beautiful boys

400, congrats. Seems like yesterday you said that great joke. Here's to another 400

Download this and you'll start talkin'...

Colin, I don’t think I like you very much any more after today’s episode. First, I submit a comment asking how you are and you claim no one cares. Immediately following that, you insult Brandon Sanderson, my all time favorite author. STAND DOWN! (Also, congrats on the 400!)

Now that Allegheny Hogs has officially entered the lore, it is now primed to be referenced in a future Lilllymo title as a sports team.

LET THEM HOGS OINK! 🐽

Devon!

From the first moment I heard Dustin say "let em' Oink" I knew it would be the next best merch shirt. It needs to be on a baseball T!

NerfedNinja

Nooooo not Brad, Duke of Death for SS+

Ant Castillo

Any plans to make the Hogs logo downloadable to use in sports games like MLB the show that allow you to upload logos? Edit: just got to the MLB show mention in the pod lol… nice

Its okay Dustin. NieR:Automata is my favorite game of all time, but I also interchangeably say Automata and Automata. Hell, I had to verify if there were spaces before and after the ":". Cautiously optimistic for the next NieR, but I'm honestly okay with what we have now. Happy 400 dudes!

Huge dumb crash out up here in Canada over the hockey. Especially the players who play for Canadian teams that went to the White House. These idiots are planning to boo them at the games now... Its so pathetic.

Solid Skink

My favourite part was when Colin moved his mic at the very end.

Bisexual Lighting Rigger

Go outside once and awhile please. Life is too short to be pissed off at every little perceived political issue...

Zeeland the og Zealand is fucking Dutch you epic Americans! Congrats with 400 episodes, even though you guys are geographically challenged. Greetings from the Netherlands

Dustin, I know exactly the Dark Souls 3 farm you're talking about. It took me, I shit you not, 16 hours of farming over 3 straight days due to massively unlucky RNG. Horrible. Dreadful. One of the worst grinds I've ever done, to the point where I wonder if it was even worth it. Platinums like that are just obnoxious. on the other hand, it's made my tolerance for tough trophies much higher ever since. Whenever I'm struggling with a challenging trophy in a game, I say to myself "well, I farmed the silver knights in Anor Londo for 3 days straight. If I could do that, I can do anything." I suppose this makes me understand why some people think trophy hunting is a mug's game, though. 😂

Colin, I regret to inform you that the legendary BK right off Route 16 in Dover NH is, as of this year, gone and replaced with a hotel—much to the community’s sadness. Long time listener and always thrilled to hear the occasional NH/ME lore drops. I grew up in Rochester, NH and your mentions of the Fox Run Mall, Kittery Trading Post, and other Tri-City adjacent points of interest are always a joy

Day 1 purchase on the Hogs merch. Been a fan of my local A baseball team in Allegheny since I was a young boy. Such fond memories of the rotted out spot on the bleachers where my dad and I would watch Skip Dickerson try to make it to the big leagues. I learned baseball on that bench from my dad. And I learned the tenacity to never give up on a dream from 20 year Hog veteran Skip Dickerson.

That was me that Collin mentioned calling him out on his criticism that Switch 2 is stinky. Admittedly I came in hot and posted before hearing him praise the hardware later in the show. I do feel I got a little misrepresented and the games he called out are older games and I didn't mention they ran at 60fps but that they ran well given the hybrid handheld nature of the switch 2, but I also gave examples of new games like AC Shadows and Star Wars Outlaws that features raytracing. Not to mention the newly released RE 9 that digital foundry said was a solid port.

400 boys, congrats. Been here since the beginning! I had Gemini create an image of Colin on the Frigate saying 'Mission Accomplished" but can't share it. Regardless that means yall have to stick around another 20 years.

Colin : “wouldn’t it be better if J.S Bach made way less music” That’s how idiotic you sound lol , cmon man…

What else would a president have to do before you’d consider them a bad person with bad intentions

caswellow

Day one buying a Hog shirt. Awesome

Bisexual Lighting Rigger

news flash : THEY ARE ALL BAD PEOPLE WITH BAD INTENTIONS. But its everyone's choice to obsess over every little thing they do like celebrities. Pretend you live in the woods for a month and not read anything about them. Your life would literally not change a bit, so what is the point of all this self inflicted anxiety you people love so much?

Get high, eat 100 Nuggets, and play Saint Slayer. Nail the gamers hat trick. Also I wish you guys sold sweaters in the store more often, personally I’m more of a sweater Chad than a T-Shirt Kyle so I’m always on the look out for sweaters. I’d happily drop $75 on one, especially with the Saint Slayer Art on one. Shit would look sexy
